Supporting Our Troops
We can think of no greater honor than to know that when the men and women of our nation's armed forces put their lives on the line, they choose SureFire flashlights to accompany them into battle. Here are their accounts of how SureFire's products fared in the face of danger.
| Scout Light Stops Escalation |
I'm a US Marine infantryman and was in Iraq last year with a military advisor team. We were dispatched to find some oil smugglers at about 2:00 a.m. and after some searching, we found them off the main route, blacked out. I dismounted my vehicle with two other marines. All of us were equipped with Colt M4 rifles outfitted with SureFire Scout Lights and Beretta 9 millimeter pistols with SureFire X-Series lights. As I approached the first truck on foot, a man with an AK-47 climbed out and began shouting. I ordered him to put his weapon down, but he began to walk toward me. So I brought my rifle up and hit the pressure switch on my Scout Light, blinding the suspect. He instantly dropped his weapon, and we took him into custody.
I'm convinced that my SureFire Scout Light® saved us from a deadly force confrontation. I have SureFire lights on all my personal firearms, and I trust my life to them. Thanks for a lifesaving product.
